Overview
A 24 inch, 13 ounce aluminum teeball bat from Franklin's Venom line, built as a drop -11 first bat for beginners just starting to hit off a tee. It is USA Baseball certified for teeball play and sized for kids, not adult league use.
The drop -11 rating (length in inches minus weight in ounces) is what makes this a beginner bat rather than a scaled-down adult one: at 24 inches and 13 ounces it is intentionally light relative to its length, so a young player can generate bat speed before they have the strength for a heavier barrel. The 2 1/4 inch aluminum barrel is sized for soft-core teeballs specifically, not regulation hardballs.
- 24 inch length, 13 ounce weight, drop -11
- 2 1/4 inch aluminum alloy barrel
- USA Baseball certified for teeball
- Balanced weighting for a level, beginner swing
Who it's for
Parents buying a first bat for a child in teeball or coach-pitch, where swing control matters more than power. Not intended for players who have moved up to regulation baseballs, where this bat's certification does not apply.
Pros and cons
- Light 13 ounce weight suits a beginner's swing strength
- USA Baseball certified for teeball league play
- Aluminum barrel gives real feedback on contact
- Rated only for soft-core teeballs, not official weight baseballs
- Sized for young beginners, so a player will outgrow it
Performance notes
The aluminum alloy barrel gives more feedback on contact than a plastic bat, which helps a beginner learn what solid contact feels like versus a mishit. Franklin balances the bat's weight distribution evenly along its length so a young swinger can complete a level swing through the zone rather than fighting a barrel-heavy bat.
